At that time, the colonies were fighting for independence from Britain. Yet the books that American children used in school all came from Britain. The books were all about British people and British places. Webster wanted books that would mean more to American children. So he wrote three books that used American examples—a grammar book, a spelling book, and a reader. These books were very popular, and millions of them were sold.Webster was interested in changing the spellings of words. He wanted words to be spelled the way they were pronounced. For example, he thought the word "head" should be spelled “hed”, and the word“laugh” should be spelled “laf”. People liked Webster’s suggestions.However, few words were actually changed. One group of words that were changed were words in which an unpronounced “u” followed an “o”. That is why Americans write “color” and “labor”, and the British write “colour” and “labour”.With the money he made from his books, Webster was able to write. It was the first American English dictionary, published in 1828.Webster's dictionary had over 70,000 words and gave the meaning and origin of each. To this day, Webster’s work is the example that most dictionaries of American English follow.16．What was Noah Webster when he was young?A．A writer.B．A teacher.C．A painter.D．A reporter.17．Why did Webster decide to write books?A．Because he wanted to earn more money.B．Because he wasn’t satisfied with the books he used.C．Because there were not enough books in the market.D．Because he had to borrow books from Britain when he was a student.18．What can we learn from paragraph 3?A．Webster spoke English in a different way.B．American people didn't like speaking English.C．Webster was good at correcting mistakes in textbooks.D．American people didn't write English as exactly as English people did.19．What is Noah Webster famous for in American history?A．His teaching methods.B．His dictionary.C．His fighting for freedom.D．Learning foreign languages.20．What does the last sentence of this article mean?A．Most dictionaries in the world are the copies of Webster’s.B．Most American people followed Webster’s advice on writing.C．Webster’s dictionary is the only one used in the United States.D．Most dictionaries in American English have the characteristic (特点) of Webster’s. 4.（12.5分）CLong, long ago people made fires from lightening (闪电). But they had to keep the fire burning, for they couldn’t start it again if there was no lightening. Later, they found out hitting two pieces of stone together could make a spark (火花). The spark could fire dry leaves. In this way they could make the fire again if it went out. Then people also learned to make a fire by rubbing (摩擦). They made a hole on a piece of wood and put a smaller stick into the hole. They turned the stick again and again. After a few minutes they got a fire.As years went by, people learned other ways to make a fire. Sometimes they used the heat from the sun. They held a piece of glass in the right way and made a piece of paper on fire.About two centuries ago, people began to make matches. Matches brought people a quick and easy way to make fires. Today matches are still being used, but people have more new ways to make fires. One of them is to use an electric fire starter. Of course an electric fire starter is much more expensive than a box of matches. But it is very useful.21. From the text we know that a spark can _______.A. fire any leavesB. burn anythingC. burn dry leavesD. keep fire burning22. Matches have been used ________.A. for about two thousand yearsB. for about two hundred yearsC. since people began to use fire for cookingD. since people used the heat from the sun23. From the text, we know that _______.A. electric fire starters are of great useB. people haven’t used matches since they had electric fire startersC. today there are only two ways to make fireD. forest fires can’t happen from lightening24. The underlined word “them” in the last paragraph refers to “________”．A. matchesB. peopleC. new waysD.fires25. Which of the following is the right order (排序) of the ways to make fires people got to know?a. with a matchb. from the sunc. from lighteningd. by rubbinge. with an electric fire starterA. a, b, c, d, eB. b, c, a, e, dC. c, d, b, a, eD. d, a, c, b, e三、阅读七选五（本题共计1小题，总分12.5分）5.（12.5分）Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well. The grammar is now familiar. The reading comprehension（理解）is no problem. You are communicating quite fluently（流利地）. 26 .First of all, remember that you are not alone.

The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from , which allows you to use the Internet like a radio station.Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated (使沮丧) by limited understanding. 28 .Here is some of the advice I give my students:Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything.Keep cool when you do not understand --- even if you continue not to understand for a long time.29 .

Translating leads toa kind of block in one’s brain which sometimes doesn't allow us to understand anything at all!By remaining calm, allowing yourself not to understand, and not to translate while listening, your brain is free to concentrate on the most important thing: understanding English in English.A. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly.B. What should you do?C. Do not translate everything into your native language.D. This situation leads to less -- not more -- understanding.E. The next step is to find listening resources.F. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.G.

Their most famous architectural achievement is the construction of the pyramids, which were built as tombs for the pharaohs. The Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest of the pyramids, was built around 2560 BC. It was designed to be a perfect square, with each side measuring approximately 230 meters. The Egyptians were able to calculate the length of the sides of the pyramid with remarkable accuracy, even though they did not have the benefit of modern tools.One of the key mathematical concepts used in the construction of the pyramidswas the Pythagorean theorem. The Egyptians used the theorem to ensure that the corners of the pyramid were 90 degrees, which was essential for stability. Another important mathematical concept they used was the concept of pi, which they approximated as 3.16. This allowed them to calculate the circumference of the base of the pyramid, which was crucial for the construction of the outer casing.The Egyptians also had a sophisticated understanding of astronomy. They believed that the stars and planets had a significant impact on the human world, and they used their knowledge of astronomy to guide their daily lives. For example, they aligned the pyramids with specific stars and celestial bodies to ensure the pharaoh’s tomb was in harmony with the cosmos.Questions:1.What is the main topic of the passage?A.

try Luckin Coffee’s new Moutai-flavored latte.She was curious about how her beloved coffee tastes with Chinese liquor in it,41to sample this“young people’s first sip of Moutai”,“The aroma of the alcohol is very strong and is well blended with the milk,”Lin told.The partnership between China’s top liquor maker Kweichow Moutai and domestic coffee chain Luckin Coffee has become both a hot topic and a moneymaker,selling5.42million cups and grossing(总共赚得)100million yuan just on Sept4,the product’s42date,China Daily reported.The coffee drink,43with an iconic Moutai-themed label and containing less than0.5percent(alcohol by volume)of53degrees Moutai,is priced at38 yuan,although consumers can get it for19yuan using coupons.“I44the spirit of innovation of the two brands,and the spirit is also shared by young people,”said Lin.In recent years,Moutai has embarked on various creative campaigns to45to younger customers,introducing products like Moutai ice cream,scented sachets(香囊)and canvas bags.“This partnership lets Moutai make its brand younger,”Li Honghui,a marketing director for drinks,also pointed out that such innovative cooperation can bring 46to both brands.“Through partnerships,brands can share resources,expand the market,and bring more diversified products to consumers,”Li said.In2023,China’s brand partnership market is47to surpass a scale of100billion yuan and is projected to approach300billion yuan by2025,according to China Quality Daily.However,flawed partnerships may lead to negative consequences.Take the collaboration between Chinese coffee chain Manner and French luxury brand Louis Vuitton(LV),for example.Consumers could get a free LV canvas bag by buying at least two books in the coffee shop.The two books would cost at least580yuan.The campaign was harshly criticized for the high barrier of48to receive the gift and many people doubted whether it was worth the price.Similarly,in July this year,milk tea brand Heytea and jewellery brand Chow Tai Fook jointly launched a peach-flavored drink,which was mocked by internet users as neither49nor tasty.They said that peaches had nothing to do with Chow Tai Fook,and that the drink was too sweet with not enough peaches.“It’s important to50 the high quality of the products in these partnerships rather than merely generate hype(炒作),”Li said.Ⅲ.Reading ComprehensionSection A(15’)Directions:For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A,B,C and D.Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The term‘dark tourism’is far newer than the practice,which long predates Pompeii’s emergence as a dark 51.Dr Philip Stone,perhaps the world’s leading academic expert on dark tourism,considers the Roman Coliseumto be one of the first dark tourist sites,where people travelled long distances to watch death as ter,until the late18th century,the appeal was52still in central London,where people paid money to sit in grandstands to watch mass hangings.Dealers would sell pies at the53,which was roughly where Marble Arch stands today.It was only in1996that‘dark tourism’entered the scholarly vocabulary when two academics in Glasgow54 it while looking at sites associated with the murder of John F.Kennedy.Those who study dark tourism identify plenty of55for the growing phenomenon,including raised awareness of it as a(n)56thing.Access to sites has also improved with the arrival of cheap57travel.It’s hard to imagine that the Auschwitz-Birkenau memorial and museum would now welcome more than two million visitors a year were it not for its58to Krakow’s international airport.Peter Hohenhaus,a widely travelled dark tourist based in Vienna,also59the broader rise in off-the-beaten track tourism,beyond the territory of popular guidebooks and TripAdvisor rankings.“A lot of people don’t want mainstream tourism and that often means engaging with places that have a more60 history than,say,a Roman ruin,”he says.“You go to Sarajevo(萨拉热窝)and most people remember the war being in the news so it feels closer to one’s own life story.”Auschwitz-Birkenau Marble ArchHohenhaus is also a fan of‘beauty in61’,the contemporary cultural movement in which urban ruins have become subject matter for expensive coffee-table books and a thousand Instagram accounts.The crossover(交叉风格)with death is clear.“I’ve always been drawn to62things,“the54-year-old says.Nevertheless,like any tourism,dark tourism at its best is educational,the example of Grenfell Tower(many“tourists”flooded to a London tower block,destroyed by a fire in2017with71deaths)hints at the63felt at some sites.“I remember the Lonely Planet Bluelist book had a chapter about dark tourism a while ago and one of the64was‘pay due respect’,”Hohenhaus says.“It’s big,it’s dramatic,it’s black and it’s a story you’ve followed in the news.I’ll be interested to see Grenfell Tower up close.I can see the attraction.But I would not stand in the street taking a selfie 65.”51.A.opportunity B.secret C.attraction D.memory52.A.fancier B.harsher C.likelier D.further53.A.site B.relic C.memorial D.range54.A.assigned B.charted C.applied D.processed55.A.motivations B.obstacles C.purposes D.reasons56.A.identifiable B.creative C.unrecognizable D.practical57.A.rail B.coach C.pedestrian D.air58.A.shortcut B.resemblance C.nearness D.relevance59.A.relates to B.points

D.panic64.A.limitations B.obstacles C.goals D.rules65.A.embarrassedly B.determinedly C.necessarily D.merrilySection B(22’)Directions:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have read.(A)We lost another tree in our last storm,and it broke my heart.Thanks to the large amounts of rainfall here in the Pacific Northwest,tree roots don’t grow very deep or provide a strong anchor against the wind.We have lost many trees through the years,but this one was different.About17years ago,I joined the Arbor Day Foundation,and they sent me10Canadian blue spruce seedlings. Our property has many large Douglas firs,which are magnificent trees,but I wanted to add some variety.I planted my blue spruce seedlings along the driveway,and I did all I could to protect them.Shortly after that,a storm with gusts up to129km/h ripped through our area and took down many of our fir trees. My seedlings survived.But when we decided to join our neighbor in selling our downed trees to a logger,we had to move the seedlings to keep them from getting destroyed.Sadly,five of the10blue spruce trees didn’t survive being moved.Of the five that lived,three were in our front yard,where I could watch them grow into mature trees from my front window.When one of the big Douglas firs that towered over them died,we decided to cut it down before it fell.After much debate,my husband,Eldon,and my son-in-law Gary Parker decided they could drop it without hitting any of the blue spruce trees.I watched breathlessly as the drama unfolded,praying the whole time I heard the chainsaw.The fir fell right between two of them as planned,and my trees continued to grow.Then one night I was lying in bed during yet another windstorm and heard a loud noise,followed by the sound of a tree crashing down.The next morning I awoke to find the largest of our blue spruces lying on the ground;I was incredibly upset.For17years,I’d enjoyed watching it grow from a seedling to a tree nearly40feet(12.2meters)tall. Now it was gone!Losing my tree was hard to accept,even though I knew that it was nature’s way.I also knew there was only one thing I could do about it.Another10new seedlings recently arrived from the Arbor Day Foundation.I planted them in a safe spot close to the house.When they’re a little larger,I’ll transplant them to a permanent spot where I can watch them grow tall and beautiful.66.Why does the author share the fact that the tree lost in the last storm was“different”in the first paragraph?A.Mainly because it was a rare Canadian blue spruce.B.Mainly because it had survived many strong windstorms.C.Mainly because she had devoted a great deal of effort to protecting it.D.Mainly because the author once signed an agreement with the Foundation.67.The author has lost many trees mainly because________.A.most trees were too weak to protect themselves from the windstormB.many trees did not survive after being relocated to a permanent spotC.she plants trees along the driveway where the wind affects them greatlyD.the amount of rainfall there means tree roots can’t provide firm support68.Which of the following is TRUE?A.All the blue spruces were coincidentally uprooted in the last severe storm.B.The author’s family cut the fir to make room for the blue spruces around it.C.The author planned to sell blue spruces to a logger when they were mature.D.The author was worried that cutting the dead fir would hurt the blue spruces.69.What can we conclude from the last paragraph?A.The author couldn’t get over the fact that she had lost her blue spruces.B.The author wanted to fight against nature by planting more trees.C.The Arbor Day Foundation provides guidance about transplantation.D.The author is hopeful about the new blue spruces she has newly planted.(B)Your Day,Your

summer.C.Skiers can pick up their rented skis at the mountain bases.D.The Whistler Blackcomb Snow School is well-known in North America.(C)The term culture now is more used to describe everything from the fine arts to the outlook of a business group or a sports team.In its original sense,however,culture includes all identifying aspects of a racial group,nation,or empire:its physical environment,history,and traditions,its social rules and economic structure,and its religious beliefs and arts.The central beliefs and customs of a group are handed down from one generation to another.It is for this reason that most people regard culture as learned rather than innate.People acquire a culture because they are not born with one.The process by which a person develops a taste for regional foods,accented speech,or an outlook on the world over time,therefore,is known as enculturation(文化适应).Cultures are often identified by their symbols—images that are familiar and coated with meaning.Totem poles (图腾柱)carved with animals and creative figures suggest aspects of the Native American peoples of the Pacific Northwest but more literally represent specific tribes(部落).In Asia and India,the color of yellow is connected with temples while in ancient China it was a color only the emperor’s family was allowed to wear.Thus,different cultures may respond to a symbol quite differently.For example,to some a flag may represent pride,historical accomplishments,or ideals;to others,however,it can mean danger or oppression.To individuals unfamiliar with cultures outside their own,the beliefs,behaviors,and artistic expression of other groups can seem strange and even threatening.A society that ranks all other cultures against its own standards is considered to be ethnocentric(from the Greek ethnos,meaning“people,”and kentros,meaning“center”).A strongly ethnocentric society assumes also that what is different from its own culture is likely to be inferior and,possibly, wrong or evil.All people are ethnocentric to some degree,and some aspects of ethnocentrism,such as national pride,contribute to a well-functioning society.An appreciation for one’s own culture,however,does not prevent acceptance and respect for another culture.History documents the long-term vigour and success of multicultural groups in which people from numerous and various cultural backgrounds live and work together.Extreme ethnocentrism,in contrast,can lead to racism—the belief that it is race and racial origin that account for variations in human character or ability and that one’s own race is superior to all others.73.The underlined word“innate”in Paragraph2most probably means________.A.avoidableB.developedC.instinctiveD.managed74.According to the passage,the statement which is TRUE is________.A.Culture consists of some positive features of a racial group,nation or empireB.Different interpretations of a symbol help to distinguish one culture from anotherC.An ethnocentric country opens welcoming arms to cultures different from its ownD.People from various cultural backgrounds often reach an agreement on some image75.What can be inferred from the passage?A.All aspects of ethnocentrism can produce negative effects on a society.B.Respect and acceptance of different cultures are a proper cultural attitude.C.Racism is unlikely to bring about serious conflicts among different cultures.D.Countries with a strong sense of national pride play a superior role in the world.76.The most proper title of the passage might be________.A.Culture,a Faithful Mirror of HistoryB.Culture,the Origin of Racial SuperiorityC.Culture,the Vigor of World DevelopmentD.Culture,a Distinctive Identity of a NationSection C(8)Directions:Read the passage carefully.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.A.In many ways,our courage to imagine helps push back the boundaries of possibility.B.Therefore,as you can see evidenced by such examples,age has absolutely nothing to do with it.C.What’s even worse than restriction is that adults often underestimate kids’abilities.D.The reality,unfortunately,is a little different,and it has a lot to do with trust,or a lack of it.E.For better or worse,we kids aren’t held back as much when it comes to thinking about reasons why not to do things.F.But there’s a problem with this rosy picture of kids being so much better than adults.For kids like me,being called childish can be a frequent occurrence.Every time we make irrational demands or exhibit irresponsible behavior,we are called childish.Take a look at these events:imperialism,colonization,world wars,etc.Who’s responsible?Adults.What have kids done?Anne Frank touched millions with her powerful account of the Holocaust,Ruby Bridges helped to end segregation in the United States,and,most recently,Charlie Simpson helped to raise120,000pounds for Haiti on his little bike.77The traits the word childish addresses are seen so often in adults that we should delete this age-discriminatory word when it comes to criticizing behavior associated with irresponsibility and irrational thinking.Then again,who’s to say that certain types of irrational thinking aren’t exactly what the world needs?Maybe you’ve had grand plans before but stopped yourself,thinking,“That’s impossible,”or,“That costs too much,”or,“That won’t benefit me.”78Kids can be full of inspiring aspirations and hopeful thinking.Like my wish that no one went hungry or that everything were a free kind of utopia(不切实际的空想).Sometimes a knowledge of history and the past failures of utopian ideals can be a burden because you know that if everything were free,then the food stocks would become depleted and scarce and lead to chaos.But in order to make anything a reality,you have to dream about it first.79For instance,the Museum of Glass in Tacoma,Washington,has a program called Kids Design Glass, and kids draw their own ideas for glass art.The resident artists said they got some of their best ideas through the program because kids don’t think about the limitations of how hard it can be to blow glass into certain shapes;they just think of good ideas.Our inherent wisdom doesn’t have to be insiders’knowledge.Kids already do a lot of learning from adults,and we have a lot to share.I think that adults should start learning from kids.Learning between grownups and kids should be reciprocal(相互对等的).80If you don’t trust someone,you place restrictions on them.Adults seem to have a universally restrictive attitude towards kids from every“don’t do that,don’t do this”in the school handbook to。

陕西省西安市2023-2024学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题(含答案)
陕西省西安市2023-2024学年高一上学期期中考试英语试题姓名：__________ 班级：__________考号：__________(共15 小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读理解A British sleep expert, professor Chris Idzikowski, did a research showing that there was some connection between the way people sleep and their personality.The fetal positionThe fetal position gets its name from the shape of a baby in the mother's stomach. It is the most common position in the world. People who sleep in the fetal position tend towards worry and anxiety. They are often shy and sensitive. In the fetal position, a sleeper's body is like a ball as he lies on one side with legs and arms bent. Adults usually sleep in this position.The starfish positionWhen sleeping like a starfish, you lie on your back with arms up near the pillow. Sleep scientist Idzikowski says starfish sleepers value friendship. People who sleep in this position are good listeners and quick to help others. If you have a starfish sleeper as a best friend, you're in luck. Starfish sleepers are great listeners and a source of comfort to others.The freefall positionIn the freefall position, sleepers have their hands on or around their pillows, with their heads turned to one side. Freefall sleepers are social but sensitive and can become upset by extreme situations. They like to be in control of everything around their life. It's all part of their long periods of indecision, but once they make a choice, they stick to it. This position can aid in digestion (消化).The log positionFor those who suffer from back pain, the log position could be helpful for you. Log sleepers have both their arms and legs extended, so their bodies are straight like a log. Log sleepers are very trusting, but are usually social and easy-going individuals. Idzikowski claims that preferring a log position suggests that a person is sociable and can communicate with others easily.1．What's the personality of people sleeping in fetal position?A．Social and easy-going.B．Sensitive and social.C．Friendly and positive.D．Shy and sensitive.2．Which of the following is most suitable to be a friend?A．A fetal sleeper.B．A starfish sleeper.C．A freefall sleeper.D．A log sleeper.3．What can we know about log sleepers?A．They do well in sports.B．They are good listeners.C．They are easy to get along with.D．They have difficulty making decisions.阅读理解The world will become a better place when we realize that everyone can have bad days and that we care enough and take actions. A Kansas fourth-grade teacher Rachel Harder recognized this, and she found an amazing way to help out both her students and their families.A few years ago, Rachel attended a trauma (精神创伤) conference. She learned that some police stations partnered with schools. They could let teachers know when their students need help, patience or extra care.A year after the conference, Rachel had a student with autism who frequently had difficult days. To support the student, Rachel told the student's mom to simply text her "Handle with Care" to let her know when the student was experiencing difficult time. "When she would text me, I knew that her daughter needed some extra time and a quiet place to get help, not going to the playground for morning announcements (通告), so that the rest of her daughter's day went well," Rachel said.The simple method was such a success that Rachel decided to send all of her students home with a note for their parents. It explained what the "Handle with Care" system was and how they could make use of it. In no time, the parents began to show their appreciation for Rachel's unbelievable act of kindness.But Rachel's kindness didn't end with her class. News spread of the amazing system, and teachers across the country began giving it a shot in their own class. Printed materials could be found on the school website, and the feedback (反馈) has been extremely positive!4．What happened to Rachel a few years ago?A．She met with a policeman.B．She noticed some students in need.C．She acted as a host at a contest.D．She raised a girl with autism.5．What can we imagine Rachel probably did to the girl student?A．She asked to stop the morning announcements.B．She talked with her in the playground.C．She took her home ahead of time.D．She comforted her at a quiet place.6．How did the parents treat Rachel's system?A．They paid no attention to it.B．They changed it in daily use.C．They accepted it thankfully.D．They introduced it to others personally.7．What is the text mainly about?A．A proper system.B．A considerate teacher.C．A story going online.D．A class influencing the nation.阅读理解The characteristic (特征) of shyness is to feel frightened and nervous in new social situations or when being the center of attention. Whether shyness is part of your children's personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers, it is a common experience, according to a study.To look at shyness, researchers brought 152 children aged 7-8 into a lab and told them they would give a speech, which would be filmed and shown to other children. The study showed that about 10% of the children showed a level of stress over time when giving the speech. About 25% of the children were not reported to be shy in the eyes of their parents, but in fact showed a level of social stress from giving the speech. This finding provides the fact that shyness may be a part of these children's temperament (性情).For children at this age, shyness may be a quite common and normal experience when they face a speech task. For a smaller group of shy children, however, being the center of attention may be stressful at different times and environments.A shy temperament isn't always valued by society like an outgoing personality, but that doesn't mean there is something wrong. Everyone can feel shy at times depending on the environment. And those who are particularly shy often have happy social lives—they just aren't likely to be the liveliest people in a crowded room.Although shyness itself may not necessarily be a problem, parents should pay attention to signs of worry, particularly in their shy children. Importantly, however, we know that not all shy children are the same, and that many shy children grow up to be well-balanced adults.8．What can we learn from paragraph 1?A．Shyness is not an unusual characteristic.B．Shyness is born with personality.C．Shyness will appear when one is in public.D．Shyness means not communicating with others.9．What is the finding of the study?A．Few kids like to give a speech to others.B．Some kids can get shy while giving speeches.C．Some kids appear less shy with their parents.D Some kids are stressed when being separated.10．What does the author advise parents to do when facing shy children?A．Bring them to crowded space.B．Care for them and give them confidence.C．Keep them away from shyness.D．Let them be alone.11．What can be the best title for the text?A．When are people shy?B．Ways of beating shynessC．Why is shyness a bad thing?D．The discoveries about shyness阅读理解Humans are not the animal world's only fashion followers. Tits (山雀) can be one of them, too. A study by Sonja Wild and Lucy Aplin shows that, given the chance, they make their nests (巢穴) with this season's must-have color.Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin followed up on a study which noted that the blue tits preferred to put the same plants into their nests. This also suggested fashion-following—and it led Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin to imagine that birds were studying the nests of others and copying them.The birds they followed carried instruments on them. That allowed researchers to follow a large number of tits by their arrival at food dispensers (自动取物装置) throughout the woods.One day in March 2021, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin used five dispensers with wool rather than food. Each contained two colors—either orange and pink or blue and purple—but all were rigged to give only one of these. This remained so until at least one local nest was seen to include wool from a dispenser. At that moment, the other color was discovered, too. As a comparison, Dr. Wild and Dr. Aplin set up four wool dispensers in a separate area, each providing two colors from the beginning.Of 68 tits' nests, 26 included wool from a dispenser. Of these, 18 were built after both colors had been gotten from all dispensers. Even so, 10 of that 18 included only the color of wool first chosen by a nest makers. By contrast (相比之下), all 8 nests with wool have mixed colors, which showed a clear difference in the record.Tits, then, do seem to be "in fashion" when it comes to nest-building materials. Tits like those of the leaders of human fashions and it is worth more deep research.12．Why are the same plants put into nests by the tits?A．They want to beautify their nests.B．They find no other plants.C．They are used to doing this.D．They want to keep warm.13．What does the underlined word "rigged" in paragraph 4 mean?A．Refused.B．Warned.C．Forced.D．Arranged.14．What method is mainly used in the experiment?A．Testing colors.B．Observing activities.C．Comparing results.D．Checking numbers.15．What is the author's attitude to the research?A．Disappointed.B．Supportive C．Doubtful.D．Unclear.二、第一部分阅读，第二节任务型阅读 (共5 小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Here are some major reasons for such a decision.1.The health reasonMedical studies prove that a vegetarian diet is easier to digest, provides a wider range of nutrients(营养) and has fewer burdens on the body. Vegetarians are less influenced by all the major diseases, and thus live longer, healthier, more productive lives. They have fewer physical plaints, less frequent visits to the doctor, and smaller medical bills.In a word, they are in the most natural conditions of life.2. __________________Planet earth is suffering. In large measure, the great loss of species, destruction of ancient rainforests to create lands where animals can feed on grass, loss of top soils, and the increase of water impurities(杂质) and air pollution have a mon cause which is the single fact of meat in the human diet. No single decision that we can make as individuals or as a race can have such a dramatic effect on the improvement of our planetary ecology(生态) as the decision not to eat meat. Many seeking to save the planet for future generations have made this decision for this reason and this reason alone.3.The economic reasonThe simple fact is that to produce 1 kilogram of meat, it requires over 16 kilograms of grain and much more water. Millions of animals are bred for meat production. If they were not bred, the vegetation would be used to feed people. And more people in hunger would have their food.56. Vegetarians prefer to live on vegetables for the reasons EXCEPT that _______.A. vegetables are easier to digestB. they provide more kinds of nutrientsC. vegetables are cleaner than meatD. the body will have fewer burdens57. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passageA. Vegetarians will spend no money on medical care.B. Vegetarians have more children in their life.C. Vegetarians are usually thinner.D. Vegetarians can save the planet for future generations.58. What might be the proper title for the second partA. The ecological reason.B. The pollutant reason.C. The plant reason.D. The generation reason.59. Which of the following might the writer agreeA. Fewer animals should be bred to produce more grain for people.B. Animals shouldn’t be raised.C. We should save animals.D. Living on vegetables can solve the problem of hunger.60. If people live on vegetables, which of the following may NOT be affected by itA. Species of animals.B. Air quality.C. People’s health.D. Grain quality( B )Frank Woolworth was born in Rodman, New York., in 1852. His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said FIVE CENTS EACH. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly from the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placedan order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT.”61. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.A. earn more money for his familyB. learn something from a salesmanC. get away from the farmD. get enough to eat.62. Frank sold the odds and ends quickly because _____________.A. he knew how to get people to buy his goods.B. he cut down the price by halfC. he had put the goods on a table in a very nice way.D. the sign he put on the table was well designed.63. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.64. _____________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.A. His business skills and his wealth.B. The low price of the goods he sold.C. His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.D. His natural skill for showing things.65. The belief that : “ The customer is always right” suggests that_______________.A. whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shopassistant, the customers are always right.B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.C. stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they wantto make more money.D. stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if theywant to be successful.( C )About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green － a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow.A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.66. The passage is mainly about _____________.A. color and its surprising effects.B. women being luckier than menC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness67. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.A. tell different shapesB. see in a weak lightC. kill mosquitoesD. tell orange from yellow68. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by womenA. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color-blind womenC. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.69. Which of the statements about the color- blind is trueA. Not all of them have the same problem in recognizing color.B. None of them can see deep red.C. None of them can tell the difference between blue and green.D. All of them see everything in shades of green.70. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________.A. red lightB. yellow lightC. blue lightD. green light( D )Rome had the Forum (论坛). London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.Liz and Bill, two college graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street ers. And just talk.Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says, “ Talk to Me,” they attract conversationalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.They don’t collect money. They don’t push religion (宗教). So what’s the point“ To see what happens,” said Liz. “ We simply enjoy life with open talk.”Shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.“ It started as a crazy idea.” Liz said. “ We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their job, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything.”Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.Marcia had led her husband to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind.” Marcia said. “ To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,” she explained.To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people appeared, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something the two say they’ll consider before making a decision. 71. What did Liz and Bill determined to do after the attack on September 11, 2001A. Telling stories to strangers.B. Setting up street signs.C. Talking with peopleD. Organizing a speaker’s party.72. What they have been doing can be described as ____________.A. pointless (无意义的)B. normal（正常的）C. crazyD. successful73. Why are Denise and Marcia mentioned in the textA. They knew Liz and Bill very well.B. They happened to meet the writer of the text.C. They organized the get-together in the city park.D. They are examples of those who talked to Liz and Bill.74. What will Liz and Bill do in the futureA. Go in for publishingB. Do more television programs.C. Continue what they are doingD. Spend more time reading books.75.

You can send messages in only a few seconds by email.On the Internet there are many powerful puters called “servers” to help people send and receive emails. The sending and receiving servers are just like post offices. If you want to use the email service, you have to open at least an email account(账户) called a “mailbox”, just like we set up a mailbox in a post office. Some mailboxes are provided free of charge by ISPs, which you can get when you open an Internet account. Most widely used mailboxes are provided free by the ISPs, and anyone can apply for one even if he has no ISP account.How to apply for a free mailbox? First you have to connect to the Internet and go to the homepage(主页) of the ISP providing free mailboxes. Then you’ll find an icon(符号) showing “apply for a free mailbox”, click the icon, an agreement about the rules for using the free mailbox will appear. If you want to go on, click the icon “I agree”. Then you have to fill in a form about your basic personal information, and the name and pin of the mailbox. The pin is the key to the mailbox. After finishing these, you’ll get a mailbox like this: your name @ mail server, for example: jack@ 163. . The mailbox is separated into two parts by a separator “@”, which is read as “at”. The former part is the name of the mailbox. The latter (后者) is the domain name(域名) of the mail server. All mails to you will be received by the server and put into your mailbox. You can read this mail on any puter in the world as long as you have the name and pin of the mailbox.36.
